In order to obtain a purchase price refund, the product(s) being returned must be sent back to ePETstore in accordance with the return procedure set out in clause 4 below.

Consequently, if upon receiving your purchase you are not satisfied with your choice of product(s) and wish to return it for a refund, please retain the product(s) original packaging and do not open the product.

Please promptly contact the ePETstore Call Centre on 011 463 8140 or email info@epetstore.co.za to notify ePETstore so that we can resolve the mistake by arranging to collect the incorrect product and deliver the correct product to you as quickly as possible.

2. Defective products

General warranty:

If within 6 months after delivery of a product to you:

You find that the product is defective/faulty, unsuitable for the purpose generally intended (or otherwise expressly indicated by ePETstore at time of purchase), or not legal or reasonably durable (based on the circumstances and product type) (“defective”); and – you arrange to return such product to ePETstore for inspection in accordance with the returns procedure in clause 7 below, and the product is subsequently found to indeed be defective, you are entitled to either – (a) be fully refunded, or (b) have the product repaired or replaced at ePETstore's expense (the decision between repairing or replacing being that of ePETstore depending on availability and other relevant circumstances, and in this regard you acknowledge that Sale/ On Special products will usually only be able to be repaired).

If the product is found NOT to be defective, you will NOT be entitled to any repair, replacement or refund but will instead be liable for the costs incurred in having such product returned to ePETstore and then redelivered to you.

When is a product defective?

Please note: the following are examples of things which will NOT be regarded as defects and will NOT entitle you to any repair, replacement or refund under the general warranty above: faults resulting from normal wear and tear; damage arising from incorrect usage of the product.

Supplier’s guarantee:

Certain products may come with a supplier’s guarantee. If so, this will be stated in the product listing on the site. Clear details of these guarantees are given in their listings and no shopper may ask to be covered by a wider-ranging guarantee other than the one shown on such product listing.

5. Processing of credits and refunds

Where your ePETstore account has been credited, you will be entitled to use such credit towards other purchases made by you on the site. Please note that if you’ve requested a refund as a credit on your profile it is considered a final decision and cannot be changed to another credit option later.

If you bought a sale item and want to return the item, the reduced price will be paid back to you and not the full price.

If you want to return an item that you paid the full amount for but is now on sale, you have the option of receiving the refund back in a full amount as credit on your profile or in the form of cash in your account.

If you redeemed a voucher against your purchase, and wish to return the item(s) from that purchase, the rand value paid for the item(s) being returned will either be refunded or credited to your account. The value of the voucher that was redeemed will not be refunded to you, or credited to your account. Rather, ePETstore will re-issue you with a replacement voucher to the same value, with the same voucher terms and conditions.

ePETstore reserves the right to refuse, in the interest of fraud prevention, processing any payment for any order, and/or to cancel any purchase partially or completely, with notice given to you. ePETstore will be responsible for returning funds for the cancelled portion of the order to you only if you have already paid such funds.
